Where are you guys getting 4786 since Peak stopped carrying it? I have a wholesale order and they're all out of their new container wax.

Thanks!

Wow! Guess it isn't just my lazy stirring habits! Yep, my FO is a thick yellow color--I was amazed that the white stayed as white as it did. I think this is just a bad FO. Now I have to worry about the other 3 scents I got from them. Maybe just a hard lesson learned.

But I've never had this trouble with other vanillas. Of course, they weren't from LS.

Thanks for all the advice and fun!

I've never had this happen before. I used Candy Corn from Lone Star in 4625 pillar wax. I added the FO at about 175 degrees and it just sank to the bottom. I stirred and stirred and raised the heat a little, but nothing worked. I used 1 1/4 pounds of wax and 1.1 oz. of FO.

Help?!?

Has anyone ever created their own paraffin soy blend? I have a lot of paraffin and want to make more containers. TIA

Donita - what happened when you tried to light the wax covered in varnish??

TIA.

Thanks! That makes sense! I'll try it.

Has anyone ever made these without a mold? If so, I'd love to hear how you did it. Thanks!

Hi,

I'm using the leaf mold. It gets easier after a few times. Mine does not line up completely so I have to trim. It's not one of my favorites. Here's a photo of mine.
